The Jester doesn't follow the script
#hwa1 #the209jester

Calling it "smart" implies it's trustworthy. The jester's value is that nobody sees him as an authority which lets his weird takes land. Same with LLMs in 209. Fun to bounce ideas off, sometimes useful, never steering the thinking. Treat the jester as king, and you're in trouble. #hwa1 #the209jester

AI isn’t flat out “smart”. It’s a predictability machine that’s powerful but it often hallucinates and creates new realities or add complexity. #hwa1 #the209jester

A jester acts like he knows everything, but that is not always true. This reflects how GenAI can hallucinate. #hwa1 #the209jester

LLMs aren't smart because they don't know the difference between what's right and wrong, they regurgitate what they see. They serve their purpose like a jester as they challenge our thinking and forces us to question preconceived notions. #hwa1 #the209jester

I think you compare LLMs to jesters because they can come up with unexpected ideas and make us look at things differently or in other terms be "confused". A jester was never the smartest, but instead challenged the norm. #hwa1 #the209jester

#hwa1 #the209jester You compared LLM to the jester because questioning is the whole idea. Asking questions is what makes you learn more!! A jester speaks its mind and does it in its own way, like us in this class!!!

You compared the LLMs to Shakespeare's jester because they both "disrupt knowledge itself." The difference is, the jester does this knowingly and for reason, AI doesn't have the same decision making processes as the jester would, which is why it can't be labeled as "smart." #hwa1 #the209jester

AIs and Jesters are not actually intelligent themselves. Rather, they provide information in ways that can disrupt our way of understanding. This is relevant to 209 since the class is about not conforming and challenging preconceived ways of thinking. #hwa1 #the209jester

4. LLMs are like jesters because they do not have unique thoughts and typically go with/agree with what they are told. This matters in 209, because we are encouraged to think creatively and be open-minded. #hwa1 #the209jester

LLMs are being compared to Shakespeare's jesters instead of "smart" because jesters do not always say the correct thing, but they express their minds, even if it's disruptive. Just like in this class, it doesn't matter if you are right or wrong as you voice your true self #hwa1 #the209jester

The analogy between Shakespeare's jester and LLMs work since they both are not necessarily intelligent, itself. I would describe them as wordplay. It matters in 209 since it may be telling an objectively correct/false/unknown statement but in another syntactic arrangement. #hwa1 #the209jester

You compare them because sometimes they both make you go what just happen or what does that even mean but later it starts to clear. It might say something that sounds dumb or makes no sense but it begins to make sense the more you think. #hwa1 #the209jester

You call LLMs Jesters because they are there to appease us in a way, like the king's jester is there to be his "yes man". They are a fake smart. This matters in 209 because this class is meant to enable our most authentic selfs, forcing us to expirement and be open to all paths. #hwa1 #the209jester

Jesters and LLMs both sound clever and confident, but that doesn't mean they actually understand anything. They end up confusing us by mixing up our words. In 209, that matters because it will show what can happen when our knowledge gets disrupted or disturbed by LLMs.

#hwa1 #the209jester

Shakespeare's jester disrupts knowledge. LLM's disrupt our knowledge and what we understand meaning to be. In 209, we will learn what is possible with meaning when our knowledge becomes disrupted. #hwa1 #the209jester

LLMs and Shakespeare jester beacause they almost tell people what they want to hear rather than the correct answer. The jester matters in 209 because we, as students, should be authentic rather than do what makes others comfortable. #hwa1 #the209jester

#hwa1 #the209jester I think the comparison to a jester makes sense because LLMs can bring up different ideas and make us look at things in ways we normally wouldn’t

#hwa1 #the209jester
I think you compare LLMs to Shakespeare's Jester because a jester disrupts knowledge and LLMs do a similar thing.

I believe you compare LLM's to shakespeare's jester becuase they have a mind of their own and operate however they feel like. A jester is relevant to 209 because they have some type of art/skill they are creative and so will we be in 209. #hwa1 #the209jester
